I work in a 99% MS shop, basically (well, apart from our SAP installations). Most of this was indeed setup like this due to homogenization (all our admins know everything, it all works together, no weird stuff on some servers, etc), but it has actually created a weird situation where we have some smaller services running on old unix servers and no real admin in the org... we actually have on older guy coming in once a week to check on these servers. If it wasn't so sad it was hilarious. I mean, I used to do some unix server stuff en years ago, but here I am an SAP dude, so while I do have some auths on one of those servers, I can probably basically restart some daemons and that's it. Oh yeah, and iPhones. We have those - not complaining, really, but those were sold internally as "it looks better if we have those premium phones and not old junk". Ah well...
